## Minestarters Atlas summary

RTG Mining has reported high-grade gold and copper results from trench sampling at the Chanach Project in the Kyrgyz Republic. The results include a notable 17m intercept at 5.13 g/t Au and 0.78% Cu, supporting the potential for a large porphyry skarn and epithermal gold system.

Reasoning: High-grade gold and copper intercepts from trenching confirm significant mineralisation potential across a large structural footprint.

- Positive factor: High-grade intercepts in trench sampling

- Positive factor: Multiple mineralisation styles \(skarn and epithermal\)

- Positive factor: QA/QC disclosed with accredited laboratory

- Positive factor: True width stated for trench samples

Facts used in scoring: 7

## Classification and evidence

**QA/QC Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Release includes QA/QC disclosure — certified lab, QP sign-off, or stated methods \(blanks, standards, duplicates\).

Why it applies: Release mentions use of internal lab standards, certified reference materials, blanks, splits, and replicates.

Evidence · text

> Laboratory QAQC involves the use of internal lab standards using certified reference material, blanks, splits and replicates

**True Width Disclosed**

Polarity: positive

Definition: Actual thickness perpendicular to structure is stated, not just downhole length.

Why it applies: Trench samples are explicitly stated to represent true widths of the mineralisation.

Evidence · text

> The 2023 trench samples were taken from meter length samples taken at right angles across the mapped vein and represent true widths of the mineralisation.

## How Atlas produces this analysis

Minestarters Atlas uses automated extraction to summarize mining announcements, identify reported measurements, and classify supporting evidence. Sentiment reflects the extracted narrative and classification rules; it is an interpretation, not a reported measurement. Evidence quotes and context are provided where available. Missing data, low-confidence results, and review flags indicate limitations. Check the original publisher announcement before relying on an interpretation.
